Walk With Me

Walk with me

Beyond our tomorrows

To a land of eternal dreams

Look at the stars, the moon,

And God’s own heaven

See the glory spread

Across the midnight sky

Walk with me through

Clouds of rain

And dewdrop shimmers

Cascading waterfalls

And moon lit seas

Walk with me

Beyond the crimson sun

Past quaking aspen

Ready for new snow

Scan the mountains

Reaching out imaginary arms

To embrace the coming day

Walk with me my love

All these wonders we can see

Arm and arm beyond our tomorrows

That still are yet to be.

‘You’ Say

‘You’ say, “I thought ‘you’ were a Christian?!

When a flaw in me ‘you’ see

‘You’ were in the wrong!

So, why are ‘you’ yelling at me?

I didn’t talk behind ‘your’ back

With cruel barbs like ‘thee’

Oh, Yes, I heard what ‘you’ said

And I tried to let it be

But ‘someone’ kept it going

So why are ‘you’ yelling at me?

I didn’t give ‘you’ what ‘you’ wanted

Evidently that’s the key

I am not a perfect person

And have never claimed to be

I make plenty of my own mistakes

So, why are ‘you’ yelling at me?

‘You’ could hardly wait to point them out

Dear soul this ought not to be

If I was ‘you’ and I’m glad I am not

I’d take this time to repent on bended knee

And shut my mouth before the coming end

Instead of always yelling at me!

For someday soon we will all stand together

Inside of forever’s vast eternity

We’ll be called before the only Judge of this universe

The Books will be opened for each to see

Then with the truth of our lives being revealed

Which one will be in the wrong? ‘you’ or me?

You, and You, and Me

what kind of world can it be

when wars abound for all to see?

what kind of life can be had

when petty people act so bad?

what can the children do for play

when the world has turned to ashen gray?

what can make all hearts light again

when all there is —is tears of pain?

what kind of world can it be

for you, and you, and me?

when no one takes the time to see

what hate can do to you, and you, and me!

Soft Winds

Life’s strong currents had carried us

Far beyond ourselves

Lost in the vacant worlds of loneliness

Where the trails of the ‘maybes’ and the ‘could be’s’

Had faded and disappeared

Not finding our way

We wandered down the path

Of fears and self doubt

Then over the crest of time

Soft winds began to blow

A tender kiss, a tiny hug

A look that meant so much

The warm breeze nudging love awake

Beckoning us to come to another place

A place of peace where the other mattered most

And to not be afraid of tomorrow

The soft winds whispered through our souls

Caressed the thoughts of our minds

Springing anew expectant hope

Of a lifetime spent as two

Taking tiny little steps at first

Each fearful of another fall

Yet knowing in our hearts

That the soft winds of a Father’s loving will

Had brought us safely home.

Unseen Hands

Invisible love of unseen hands

Unfold the blankets of the heart

Layers of doubt-wrinkles of shame

Imbedded woes of long ago

Trapped images of fleeting wrongs

Gathered like straw within the mind

Forbidding the joy to be free

One by one the faults are driven

Far from the shattered spirits

To a place of wholeness, within

Realms of hope with blessed peace

Where unseen hands caress

With tender touches of grace

Knitting forgiveness of self

To the hurts of others

Going beyond what needs to be

To belong once again

Where the beautiful memories

Of only the good doth dwell.

I Took a Walk

I took a walk through my amazing life today

I saw all the people I had met along the way

Some were very helpful and encouraging as could be

One or two knocked me down kicking dirt all over me

A few mocked in amusement as I took the inevitable fall

While others judged I was of no use at all

I still don’t understand why some wouldn’t even let me try

To be the person I was meant to be-Or why?

For in my walk I truly tried to help all I could

Only wanting them to treat others as they should

Now as this walk of life is approaching it’s final end

I just want to say to those I call a dear friend

Thank you for blessing my life on this earth

For through the portals of time I have seen your worth

By your kindness and genuine love you have shown

I pray for you to be blessed and never lost or alone

Until we walk those glorious eternal streets of gold

And our gracious Father God receives us into His fold.

Journey’s End

Today is the unseen image of yesterday’s child

Birthed by moments which come without end

Chains of seconds merge to make the new

As fading golden rays of the sun descend.

Steps upon steps follow within the given pace

Leading to the path that will constantly send

Mortals over the rocky trails of deepest need

To the calm smooth roads that should have been.

“Where will this day take us?” life does ask

As darkness dances upon the swirling wind

The minutes and hours question troubled thoughts

Quiet musings wander across the mind dear friend.

How will todays choices affect our eternal date?

With all the unknown just around the bend

Have we made the best use of our alloted time?

For the coming tomorrow may just be our journey’s end.

In All Thy Ways

Proverbs 3:5,6 (5) Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. (6) In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. (KJV)

Acknowledge the LORD in all thy ways

And He will direct your paths

Washing clean your sin-stained past

With the shed blood of Calvary

Mighty angels He could have called

Turned away not cared at all

But the glory before Him was all He could see

So He went to the cross for a sinner like me.

The Great I AM had called Him home

The sins of this world for us atoned

Now we’ll give Him all honor and praise

Acknowledging the LORD in all of our ways

And whatever we do, we’ll know it’s true

God’s grace is sufficient for me and you

He will carry our burdens all for free

He has paid the price on an old wooden tree.

Destiny’s Walk

Over rough roads and dangerous curves

Falling sometimes losing our nerve

“Keep looking forward,” we hear destiny say

“The past can never go this way!”

Ignoring the frivolous thoughts of fear

And benign senses, when we come near

We travel onward where miracles exist

On destiny’s walk there are no ‘as is.’

Renewing hope, not settling for less

No ‘maybes’, no ‘never minds’, or ‘what if’s’

Standing strong when put to the test

We let faith do-what faith does best.

With sureness of spirit we simply go on

Getting this life’s eternal work done

We lift up our heads, give God our hands

Knowing for certain -He knows the plan.

For He, with all His marvelous ways

Keeps every moment, fills all of our days

His hands are not idle, nor useless His talk

His WORD after all, creates ‘destiny’s walk’.

Forever Found

Bound by eternity ties ever strong

Keep pulling forward-to further along

Windows of time, through open doors

Forever guided by our expansion of more.

Needs ever filling, needs never met

Comparing the two, it’s not over yet!

Taking and giving replacing the void

Time never spent, hurts to avoid.

Eyes toward the future seeing no end

Mortals walking, souls to ascend

Lost in the darkness, calls to the light

Ever trying doing what’s right.

Heaven eternal granting the dream

Finding the river of mercy’s sweet stream

Cords of compassion, eternity bound

Forever forward-forever found.
